Langley Sr Blaze

AUG 15 - BLAZE WIN WESTERN CANADIAN BASEBALL CHAMPIONSHIP!
In dominating fashion, the Sr Blaze captured the 2010 Western Canadian Baseball Championship over the weekend. The Blaze had an offensive outburst over the 5 games in Muenster, SK, outscoring their opponents 42-10. Blaze pitching was solid and the team was lead by the strong hitting performances of Ashton Florko who hit 4 home runs and Nate Corscadden who lead the tournament in hitting with a .667 average. One of the tournament highlights was a 13 inning affair in pool play versus Manitoba which started on Saturday Aug 14 at 5pm and finished the following morning with Blaze coming out on top 5-3. Brent Suecroft in the 16-0 win over Saskatchewan threw only 44 pitches. Nathan Kirby was outstanding in relief appearing in 4 of the 5 games, coming in at crucial times, and shutting the door. The Blaze additions of Ashton Florko from Trail and Scott Tulloch, Kyle Iwata, Kevin Powell, Chris Foreman and Ryland Kathrein from Coquitlam, all played a large part in the Blaze capturing the Championship.

The Blaze look forward to an exciting off-season. In 2011, the Blaze are looking at a busy schedule starting in April and continuing till September, with the possibility of playing in several tournaments which will be announced over the course of the winter.
